Hello:
I have a steep property and my 4wd farm trucks brakes just went out... and in the fall, I built 10 new large raised beds that now need soil in preparation for the spring planting. I would like to get a price/hour for the delivery of garden soil - I am guessing it is going to take about 8 loads, definitely a full days work.

8 raised beds - 4'x8'x12"
1 raised bed - 4'x12'x12"

Cheers,
Melinda

I suggest you contact Grab (https://grabngrowsoil.com/soil-products/top-soils/)'n (https://grabngrowsoil.com/soil-products/top-soils/) Grow (https://grabngrowsoil.com/soil-products/top-soils/)Top soils (https://grabngrowsoil.com/soil-products/top-soils/). I think they deliver.

I suggest you get more than the caluculated cubic yardage to allow for compression after all the nice fluffy soil gets loadin in your new bed.

When I loaded in my new soil years ago, I filled it to the top of the beds and then it collapsed something like 3 inches.
